  en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jello_salad

  Jello salad is an American salad made with flavored gelatin, fruit, and sometimes grated carrots or (more rarely) other vegetables. Other ingredients may include cottage cheese, cream cheese, marshmallows, nuts, or pretzels. Jello salads were popular in the early 20th century and are now considered retro.

  For those as lost (at first) and disgusted (from now one) as me.

    Thanks for the description, I hate it just as much as the order of the panels in the picture.

      Right? It is like someone anticipated the “random bullshit go” meme in the 1920s while on drugs, and just went to the kitchen and created that.

      I feel the rest of the world is not making enough fun of american cuisine yet. There is still need for more.

      Very few would include all of the things listed above and I’ve never actually seen veggies in one.

      The one my family makes is just a dessert that’s primarily jello with a thin layer of cream cheese and pretzels. Has a nice combo of salty and sweet.

      Not sure why people are so grossed out by that, what’s wrong with it?

    This is why Ameircans aren’t allowed to make fun of British food.

      Americans reject most of that garbage from the 1950s-1970s.

      Where British people are jolly excited over bread on bread sandwich
